Prerequisite/Recommended prerequisite for
participation in the module
Bachelor of Science in EE, CSE or alike.
Content, progress and pedagogy of the
module
Content
The project unit focuses on the identification and/or estimation of
engineering systems for the control design purpose. The considered
systems can come from (petro-)chemical process industry, offshore
oil and gas industry, mechanical systems, robots or other
engineering systems with the requirements for identification
and/or estimation. The considered problem should be formulated and
analyzed, then some proper identification/estimation method needs
to be selected and implemented. The designed/constructed system is
assessed through simulation and practical test as well.
Learning objectives
Knowledge
- Have knowledge and comprehension for the system identification
techniques.
- Have fundamental knowledge and comprehension of probability,
statistics and stochastic processes.
- Have knowledge of the phases that an engineering project go
through
- Understand various theories and methods applied in problem
based learning and group organized project work.
Skills
- Be able to choose different system identification/estimation
methods and algorithms for different identification and/or
estimation engineering problems.
- Be able to evaluate the results using the probabilistic and/or
statistic sense.
- Be able to verify the analytical and numerical approaches by
means of simple laboratory experiments
- Be able to communicate scientific results by use of papers,
posters and oral presentations
- Are able to plan and take part in a small group of students
working on a problem based project
- Can reflect on experiences obtained through problem based
learning and group organized project work
- Can discuss various approaches to project
management.
Competences
- Be able to control the working and development process within
the project theme, and be able to develop new solutions within
identification/estimation technology
- Independently be able to define and analyze scientific problems
of identification /estimation for engineering systems, and based on
that make and state the reasons for decisions made for selecting
corresponding method.
- Independently be able to continue own development in
competences and specialization
- Can find, evaluate and reference literature within the
professional field
- Can apply internationally recognized principles for
acknowledging and citing work of others
